In honor of Kobe Bryant's jersey retirement ceremony tonight at Staples Center, Nike is releasing a handful of exclusive gear including a special edition jersey pack, t-shirts, and a "Black Mamba" Air Force 1 Low.
Nike officially revealed the kicks today, which will go on sale in limited quantities once the Warriors vs. Lakers game tips off tonight.
The "Black Mamba" Nike Air Force 1 Low iD features a special snake skin-like Black Mamba upper, a drop shadow swoosh, both of his numbers on the heel tab and eight stars on each tongue in honor of the Lakers' total title tally.
